Forbidden Passion

Chapter 737

Chapter 737 We Could Get Back Together

Phoebe bent down to pick up Ollie and walked into the living room. She lowered her head to nuzzle him. "Good boy, have you been listening to Papa at home?" Ollie rubbed his head against her chest.

Theodore watched from the side. Her use of "Papa" made his heart melt, but seeing Ollie nuzzle her chest made his expression darken instantly.

He hadn't even had the chance to get that close to Phoebe, and here was Ollie, shamelessly taking advantage of her. He walked over and took Ollie from Phoebe's arms. "My stomach doesn't feel well. Can you make me some soup?" Phoebe squinted. Theodore ordering her around came so naturally.

But seeing Theodore's furrowed brows, he did look quite uncomfortable. She turned and went to the kitchen. Opening the fridge, it had everything she needed.

She took out the ingredients and started washing them. It wasn't until she had put all the ingredients into the pot that she realized, why was she being so obedient?

She rubbed her forehead.

She had been so used to being bossed around by Theodore that she had no sense of resistance. It was terrifying.

As Phoebe's thoughts churned, the soup in the pot began to boil.

She lifted the lid and caught a glimpse of someone standing at the kitchen door. Turning her head, she saw Theodore standing there.

Theodore was holding Ollie, leaning against the doorframe, quietly watching her. For a moment, it felt like old times. Sometimes, when they both got off work early, she would cook while he stood at the door holding Ollie, keeping her company.

Even without speaking, there was a warm, comforting presence.

"The soup is almost ready." Phoebe looked away, scooped a spoonful of soup, blew on it to cool it down, and tasted it. "It seems a bit bland."
